@HawkeyeFootball Game Notes


THE SERIES
Iowa holds a 23-20-2 advantage in the series that began with a 21-7 Michigan State
win in 1953. That first meeting, played in Iowa City on Sept. 26, 1953, marked MSUs first

Kirk Ferentz recorded his first Big Ten win as Iowas head coach when the Hawkeyes
topped Michigan State (21-16) in Iowa City, in 2000. The teams have played two overtime
contests, with Iowa winning both in double overtime (34-27 in 2007 and 19-16 in 2012).
Iowa owns a 13-10-1 advantage in games played in Iowa City. The series is tied 10-10-1 in
games played in East Lansing. Saturday is the first neutral site game between the schools.

FERENTZ SECOND IN LONGEVITY


Kirk Ferentz is in his 17th season as Iowas head football coach
and ranks second in longevity among FBS head coaches. Ferentz
is first among Big Ten coaches and nationally ranks behind Virginia
Techs Frank Beamer (28), who will retire at the end of the season.
Ferentz is tied for second with Bob Stoops of Oklahoma.
FIND THE NFL-ER
Since 1999, Kirk Ferentzs first year as UI head coach, the
Hawkeyes have had a future NFL player start on the offensive line
in every season.
In each of the last eight years, an eventual NFL first-round draft
pick started on the offensive line. Brandon Scherff, selected by the
Washington Redskins fifth overall in 2015, was Iowas left tackle
from 2012-14. Riley Reiff, selected 23rd overall by the Detroit Lions
in 2012, started at left tackle from 2010-11. Bryan Bulaga, selected
23rd overall by the Green Bay Packers in 2010, started at left guard
in 2007 before moving to left tackle in 2008-09.
From 2005-06, Baltimore Ravens All-Pro Marshal Yanda shared
time at tackle and guard for the Hawkeyes. Mike Elgin, a seventh
round selection of New England, was Iowas starting center in 2004.
Pete McMahon, drafted by Oakland in 2005, was Iowas right guard
in 2003. Oaklands first round pick in 2004, Robert Gallery, was
Iowas left tackle from 2001-03. Eric Steinbach (Cincinnati) started
at guard for Iowa from 2000-02, and Bruce Nelson (Carolina) was
a four-year starter from 1999-02. Both players were second round
draft picks in 2003.
JOE MOORE AWARD COMES KNOCKING
Iowas offensive line has been named a finalist for the Joe Moore
Award, which honors offensive line units that display a high level of
toughness, effort, teamwork, physicality, tone setting and finishing.
The Joe Moore Award winner will be announced Friday, Dec. 11.
Other finalists include Alabama, Arkansas, Michigan State, Notre
Dame, and Stanford.
The Hawkeyes earned a Game Ball from the Joe Moore Award
following wins at Iowa State and against Pitt.
At Iowa State, Iowas offense rushed for 260 yards, averaging 5.8
yards per rushing attempt. Iowa controlled the fourth quarter with
10:55 in possession time, scoring two touchdowns in the final 2:14
to earn the road win.
Against Pitt, the Hawkeyes owned more than a five minute
advantage in time of possession and allowed just one sack, allowing
QB C.J. Beathard to throw for then-career bests in completions (27),
attempts (40), and yards (258).
Iowa has rushed for over 200 yards in seven games. The Hawkeye
offense has six touchdown drives over 90 yards and 18 touchdowns
drives over 75 yards. Iowa scored over 30 points in five straight games
for the first time ever.
Iowas offensive line includes center Austin Blythe, tackles Cole
Croston, Boone Myers and Ike Boettger, and guards Sean Welsh and
Jordan Walsh. Blythe and Walsh are seniors, while Myers, Boettger
and Welsh are sophomores. True freshman James Daniels has rotated
in at the guard positions, and filled in at right tackle vs. Illinois.
The Joe Moore Award is named after Joe Moore, widely regarded
as one of the best offensive line coaches in college football history,
and is the only major college football award to honor a unit.

numbers include 38-of-54 passing for 531 yards and five touchdowns, and 20 carries for
84 yards and two touchdowns. Beathard did not play in the fourth quarter against North
Texas.
DO NOT ENTER
Iowa has allowed nine rushing touchdowns this season, tying Michigan for the Big
Ten lead and ranking seventh nationally. The Hawkeyes yield an average of 110.0 rushing
yards per game, second best in the Big Ten and sixth nationally. Iowa limits its opponents
to 3.4 yards per carry -- third in the Big Ten and 13th best in the country.
The Hawkeyes allowed just one rushing touchdown through the first eight weeks, but
surrendered eight over the last four weeks (2 at Indiana, 3 vs. Minnesota, 1 vs. Purdue, 1
at Nebraska).
6 THE OTHER WAY
Iowa has returned four interceptions for touchdowns, more than any team in the Big
Ten and is tied for second in the nation. Iowa leads the Big Ten and is tied for eighth in the
country with 17 interceptions. Iowas four interceptions returned for touchdowns belong
to Josey Jewell, 34; Bo Bower, 88; Desmond King, 88, and Parker Hesse, 4. The 88-yard
interception returns by Bower and King tie for the seventh longest interception returns
in school history.
Iowa has at least one interception return for a touchdown in each of the last eight
seasons, and 13 of the last 15 seasons.
Michigan State ranks fifth in the country with five defensive touchdowns (three fumble
and two interception returns).

facebook.com/hawkeyefootball

@HawkeyeFootball Game Notes


POWER OF THREE
Three Hawkeyes (Jordan Canzeri, 256, Akrum Wadley, 204; LeShun Daniels, 195) have
combined for nine 100-yard rushing games this season: Canzeri (5x), Wadley (twice), and
Daniels (twice). The last time the Hawkeyes had three different players rush for over 100
yards in a game in the same season was 2005: Albert Young (8x), and Shonn Greene and
Damian Sims once each.
The Hawkeyes also have three receivers with 100-yard receiving games: Matt VandeBerg
(1), Tevaun Smith (1), and Jerminic Smith (1). It is the first time since 1995 three different
Hawkeyes recorded 100-yard receiving games: Tim Dwight (2x), Demo Odems (1), Scott
Slutzker (1).
MAKING HISTORY
For the first time in school history, Iowa had a different running back rush for 200 yards
in consecutive games (Akrum Wadley at Northwestern and Jordan Canzeri vs. Illinois).
Wadley recorded career highs in carries (26), rushing yards (204), and touchdowns (4)
against the Wildcats on Oct. 17. Canzeri amassed 256 yards rushing on a school-record
43 attempts against the Fighting Illini on Oct. 10.
The feat is the first time an FBS school had two different running backs eclipse 200
yards rushing in a game since 1996.
SHINING AT AWARDS SEASON
Iowa has been honored with six Big Ten weekly awards this season. QB C.J. Beathard
earned the offensive award following Iowas win at Iowa State, PK Marshall Koehn was the
special teams winner following Iowas last-second victory over Pittsburgh, DB Desmond
King earned co-defensive honors for his play in Iowas win at Wisconsin, RB Jordan Canzeri
earned the offensive honor for his play in a win over Illinois, RB Akrum Wadley earned
the offensive honor following Iowas road win at Northwestern, and DE Parker Hesse was
named Freshman of the Week in the win at Nebraska.
Iowas three offensive award winners are the most for the program since 2002, when
QB Brad Banks was recognized three times and TE Dallas Clark was honored once. The
last time three different offensive players earned weekly conference honors was 1997
(Tavian Banks, Tim Dwight, and Rob Thein).
FIRST TIME STARTERS
The Hawkeyes have used 14 first time starters: RB LeShun Daniels, Jr., LT Boone Myers,
DT Nathan Bazata, DT Jaleel Johnson, LB Cole Fisher, LB Ben Niemann, SS Miles Taylor, TE
Jameer Outsey, DE Parker Hesse, WR Riley McCarron, LT Cole Croston, WR Jerminic Smith,
LG James Daniels, and RB Akrum Wadley.
REMOVE THE REDSHIRT
Four true freshmen have played in 2015. OL James Daniels, WR Jerminic Smith, and
WR Adrian Falconer all saw action in the season opener. LB Jack Hockaday saw his first
action Week 7 at Northwestern.
Smith started at Wisconsin, becoming the first Iowa freshman to start at wide receiver
since Matt VandeBerg started two games in 2013. Daniels made his first career start at
Northwestern, becoming the first true freshman to start on the offensive line since Bryan
Bulaga in 2007. Daniels joined the Iowa program last spring and participated in spring
practice.
IOWA AMONG TOP 25 IN WINS, 2002-15

FBS. The list includes the following: Boise State (156); Ohio State (153); Oklahoma (148);

He was named Big Ten Special Teams Player of the Week following

Koehn in 3-2-1:
Has made 13-of-17 field goal attempts, and 7-of-9 from 40-plus
yards this season.
Hit a career-long 57 yard field goal as time expired to defeat Pitt,
27-24, on Sept. 19. It is the second longest field goal in school history (Tim Douglas, 1998) and ties a Kinnick Stadium record (Lee
Pistor, Arizona, 1977). He has kicked two of Iowas nine longest
field goals in school history -- both coming against Pitt (52 at Pitt
in 2014 and 57 vs. Pitt in 2015).
Has 159 career points. He is the 36th player in program history
with 100 career points and ranks 16th in career scoring.
THE KICK
Marshall Koehn kicked a 57-yard field goal as time expired to defeat
Pitt, 27-24, on Sept. 19. The game-winning field goal is the second
longest in school history and tied the Kinnick Stadium record (Arizonas
Lee Pistor in 1977).
After Pitt tied the game, 24-24, with 0:52 left in the fourth quarter,
Iowa DB Desmond King picked up a squib kick at the 3-yard line and
returned it 27 yards to the Iowa 30. QB C.J. Beathard picked up two
rushing first downs to move the ball into Pitt territory, and after a
pair of sideline routes to WR Tevaun Smith fell incomplete, Beathard
scrambled for eight yards to the Pitt 39-yard line. Iowa then used its
final timeout to stop the clock with two seconds left.
On fourth-and-2, Pitt called a timeout to freeze Koehn. Koehn
let a kick sail anyway, but it landed far short of the goal post. On the
next attempt, Dillon Kidd placed a snap from Tyler Kluver on the Pitt
47-yard line, and Koehn split the uprights, giving Iowa its first walk-off
field goal since 1986 (Holiday Bowl).
OFFENSIVE-TACKLE-BY-COMMITTEE
The Hawkeyes have started four different offensive tackles this
season. Three of them -- LT Boone Myers, RT Ike Boettger, LT Cole
Croston -- entered the season with one combined career start
(Boettger started as a second tight end against Wisconsin in 2014).
OL Sean Welsh had 13 career starts at left guard before sliding out to
right tackle at Northwestern.
Iowas offensive-tackle-by-committee is replacing a pair of
NFL lineman -- 2014 Outland Trophy winner LT Brandon Scherff
(Washington Redskins) and RT Andrew Donnal (St. Louis Rams).
Myers joined the program as a walk-on and was put on scholarship
prior to the 2014 season. He saw action in four games last season.
Boettger joined the team as a tight end but was moved to offensive
line in 2013. He saw action in seven games as a redshirt freshman in
2014. Croston joined the team as a walk-on in 2012, and had played
primarily on special teams prior to this season. He joined the program
for the 2015 spring practice season. Welsh was a high school AllAmerican in Springboro, Ohio, and was named first team freshman
All-Big Ten by BTN in 2014.

@HawkeyeFootball Game Notes


GLANCE AT THE SCHEDULE
The Hawkeyes did not face Big Ten opponents Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State,
Penn State, and Rutgers during the regular season.
Iowa won all four trophy games on its schedule in 2015: Iowa State (Cy-Hawk: W, 31-17),
Wisconsin (Heartland; W, 10-6), Minnesota (Floyd of Rosedale: W, 40-35), and Nebraska
(Heroes: W, 28-20).
The Hawkeyes finished 5-0 on the road with a pair of wins over ranked opponents (#18
Wisconsin; #20 Northwestern). Iowa is one of only five schools with multiple road wins
over ranked opponents: Alabama (3), Michigan State (2), Ole Miss (2), and UCLA (2).
Iowa was 4-0 in the month of November for the first time since 1991.
Iowa is playing in December for just the 17th time. The Hawkeyes are 9-6-1 all-time in
the month of December.
IOWA PROGRAM NOTES
Iowa and Ohio State are the only teams in the Big Ten to win their first nine games to
start a season more than once since 2000 (Ohio State six times; Iowa twice).
Iowa posted its first 4-0 record in November since 1991.
The Hawkeyes have earned bowl eligibility in 14 of the last 15 seasons.
Iowa will play in the Big Ten title game for the first time in program history on Dec. 5.
Iowa earned Big Ten Conference championships in 2002 and 2004 and placed second
in 2009. Iowa (8-0, 2002) is one of four Big Ten teams to post a perfect mark in conference play since 1998 (BCS era).
Iowa has ranked in the top 10 in the final Associated Press and CNN/USA Today coaches
polls four times since 2002, including a ranking of seventh in both polls at the conclusion of the 2009 season. Iowa ranked eighth in 2002, 2003 and 2004 and the Hawkeyes
were also 20th in 2008.
Since 1936 when the first AP poll was released, Iowa has appeared the poll 306 times,
the fifth highest total in the Big Ten (Ohio State, Michigan, Wisconsin, and MSU). Iowa
has been the top-ranked team in the country 11 times.
Iowa has set a school record with 12 wins. The Hawkeyes won 11 games in 2002 (11-2),
and 2009 (11-2). In 2009, Iowa started 9-0 and won 10 regular season games for just
the fourth time in school history.
Iowa won 10 or more games in three consecutive years (2002-04) for the first time in
school history.
Kirk Ferentz has been named Big Ten Coach of the Year three times (2002, 2004 &
2009) and he was named National Coach of the Year in 2002. Ferentz joins Michigans

of the Year); Dallas Clark (2002 Mackey, Top Tight End); Nate Kaeding (2002 Groza, Top
Kicker); Shonn Greene (2008 Doak Walker, Top Running Back); Brandon Scherff (2014
Outland, Top Lineman).
Iowas football record in the 2000 decade was 80-45 (.640), a record that ranks as the
best decade in Iowa football history, based on total wins. Iowa posted a record of 7740-4 (.652) during the 1980s and the Hawkeyes were 62-53-2 (.538) in the 1990s.
Part of the Hawkeyes long term success is due to the stability in the program. Iowa has
had just two head coaches since 1979. Hayden Fry took over prior to the 1979 season
and coached through the 1998 season, posting a record of 143-89-6. Current coach Kirk
Ferentz replaced Fry, leading the program for the 17th season. Ferentz also served as
Iowas offensive line coach from 1981-89 under Fry.

BEATHARD EARNS NATIONAL MANNING AWARD


Junior quarterback C.J. Beathard was selected as the Manning
Award Quarterback of the Week following his play in Iowas 31-17
win at Iowa State. He earned the honor over seven other Manning
Award Stars of the Week in the Allstate Sugar Bowls Facebook
contest.
In his third career start, the Franklin, Tennessee, native
completed 15-of-25 passes for 215 yards and three touchdowns
as the Hawkeyes scored 21 unanswered points in the second half
to earn the road victory. His 25-yard touchdown pass to junior WR
Riley McCarron in the fourth quarter gave the Hawkeyes the lead
with 2:14 left in the game. Beathard also carried the ball a career
high 10 times for 77 yards, showcasing his athleticism on runs of
44 and 57 yards in the first half. He was also named the Big Ten
Conference Co-Offensive Player of the Week.
Beathard earned the award over Washington States Luke Falk,
who completed 47-of-66 passes for 478 yards and four touchdowns
in a 37-34 win at Rutgers. Third in the voting was Paxton Lynch from
Memphis, who led the Tigers to a 55-23 win at Kansas to snap a
19-game losing streak against power-five teams.
Each week during the regular season, eight quarterbacks are
recognized as Manning Quarterbacks of the Week. Sixty-two players
from 58 different schools were honored during the 2014 season.
BEATHARD EARNS WEEKLY B1G HONOR
Junior quarterback C.J. Beathard was named co-Offensive Player
of the Week by the Big Ten after leading Iowa to a 31-17 win at Iowa
State on Sept. 15. He completed 15-of-25 attempts for 215 yards
and three touchdowns with no interceptions. He also rushed 10
times for 77 yards, including runs of 44 and 57 yards. His scoring
strikes covered three, 14, and 25 yards, with the 25-yard score
giving Iowa the lead with 2:14 remaining in the fourth quarter. The
Big Ten weekly honor was the first for Beathard.
KOEHN EARNS BIG TEN HONOR
Senior K Marshall Koehn was named Big Ten Conference Special
Teams Player of the Week for his performance in Iowas 27-24 win
over Pittsburgh on Sept. 19.
The Big Ten honor is the first for Koehn (6-foot, 200-pounds), a
senior from Solon, Iowa (Solon HS). He is one of two Hawkeyes to
earn a weekly conference honor this season (QB C.J. Beathard vs.
Iowa State). He is the first Iowa kicker to earn the special teams
award since Mike Meyer was recognized following a 19-16 double
overtime win at Michigan State in 2012.
Koehn delivered the winning margin against Pittsburgh as he
booted a 57-yard field goal as time expired. The kick tied the Kinnick
Stadium record for longest field goal (Lee Pistor, Arizona, 1977) and
ranks as the second longest in Iowa history (58 yards, Tim Douglas
at Illinois, 1998). With a 52-yard kick in the 24-20 win at Pittsburgh
in 2014, Koehn now has two of the nine longest field goals in Iowa
history. It was the first walk-off field goal for Iowa football since
Rob Houghtlin connected from 41 yards to win the 1986 Holiday
Bowl.

@HawkeyeFootball Game Notes

KING IS WALTER CAMP PLAYER OF THE YEAR CANDIDATE


Junior defensive back Desmond King is one of 15 Players to
Watch for the Walter Camp Football Foundation 2015 Player of
the Year. The award is the fourth-oldest college football award in
the nation.
The Player of the Year Award is voted on by the 129 Football
Bowl Subdivision head coaches and sports information directors.

thefts, which ties for eighth best at Iowa.
King has recorded 39 solo tackles and 22 assists, with one tackle
for loss. He leads the Hawkeyes with 11 pass break-ups.

Junior DB Desmond King was named Big Ten Conference CoDefensive Player of the Week for his performance in Iowas 10-6
win at Wisconsin on Oct. 3. He was also named the Jim Thorpe
national Player of the Week.
The Big Ten honor is the second for King. He was named
Freshman of the Week on Oct. 21, 2013, after recording 12 tackles
in a 34-24 loss at No. 3 Ohio State.
King led Iowas defensive effort in the win at Wisconsin as the
Hawkeye defense held the Badgers to two field goals in snapping
Wisconsins 10-game home winning streak. Kings first interception,
and 15-yard return, led to the only touchdown in the game as Iowa
took a 7-3 advantage. He recorded his second interception at the
Iowa 11-yard line to stop Wisconsins opening drive of the third
quarter.
King also had five solo tackles, four assists and two pass breakups against the Badgers. On special teams, King had three kick
returns for 65 yards.

multiple interceptions in two games, with two thefts in wins over
Pittsburgh and Wisconsin.
King was named the Jim Thorpe national Defensive Player of the
Week and Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week following Iowas
win at Wisconsin. He is the first Big Ten player with at least eight
interceptions in a single season since Wisconsins Jim Leonard in
2002 (11). The last Hawkeye to lead the Big Ten in interceptions
was Tyler Sash in 2009 (6).

CANZERI EARNS CONFERENCE HONOR
RB Jordan Canzeri was named Big Ten Conference Offensive
Player of the Week for his performance in Iowas 29-20 win over
Illinois. The Big Ten honor was the first for Canzeri.
Canzeri led Iowas offense with 256 rushing yards on 43
attempts. He also had two receptions for 15 yards. He scored twice,
including a 17-yard reception in the second quarter and a 75-yard
run in the third period.
Canzeri was at his best in the fourth quarter against Illinois,
rushing on 11 consecutive plays for 59 yards. Iowa used 6:53 of the
quarter to set up a Marshall Koehn field goal after Illinois pulled
within 23-20. Following a fumble recovery, Canzeri added three
additional rushing attempts before Koehn sealed the victory with
his third field goal of the game.
Canzeri established an Iowa record for rushing attempts in a
game, passing the previous mark of 42, which was held by Sedrick
Shaw (at Michigan State, 1995). The 256 rushing yards ranks third
best for a single game at Iowa.
WADLEY NAMED B1G OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
RB Akrum Wadley was named Big Ten Conference Offensive
Player of the Week for his performance in Iowas 40-10 win at No.

attempts. He tied a single-game Iowa record with four rushing
touchdowns, becoming the seventh Hawkeye to accomplish the
feat. The 204 rushing yards ties as the 14th best single-game total
in school history, as Wadley established career bests in rushing
attempts, yards and touchdowns.
The Big Ten honor is the second weekly honor for Wadley. He
was recognized as Big Ten Freshman of the Week on Nov. 3, 2014,
after rushing 15 times for 106 yards and a touchdown in a 48-7
win over Northwestern in Kinnick Stadium.

DWIGHT EARNS BIG TEN NAMESAKE


The Big Ten announced Nov. 24 a number of enhancements to
the conferences postseason football awards program, including
the creation of the Rodgers-Dwight Return Specialist of the Year.

in 1997. After returning three punts for touchdowns as a senior in
1997, he finished his career as the Big Ten record-holder with five
touchdowns and 1,102 yards on punt returns in his time in Iowa
